The recall at a glance

From the CPSC notice:

• Product: GBYMIUY Magnetic Stick Figure Toy Sets — packs of 30 multi-colored transparent and opaque human-shaped figures. Each figure is about 2.91 inches tall by 2.3 inches wide. Magnets sit in the hand and foot locations. Packaging is printed with “GBYMIUY” and “X004TVHD2Z”.
• Hazard: the sets violate the mandatory standard for toys because they can liberate loose high-powered magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other or other metal objects and become lodged in the digestive system. That can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning, and death.
• Units: about 10,750.
• Remedy: full refund.
• Sold: on Amazon.com from April 2026 through July 2026 for about $20.
• Incidents: no injuries reported.
• Importer: Ningbo Jiboyou Trading Co., Ltd. dba GBYMIUY, of China. Made in China.
• Recall number: 27-008.

CPSC’s notice does not list a specific age range (for example “ages 3+”) for this set. The hazard language refers to risks to children. Treat any of these stick figures in a home with young children as recalled, not as safe play.

What to do if you have a set

CPSC’s instructions:

1. Take the stick figures away from children immediately.
2. Stop using them.
3. Throw the stick figure toys away.
4. Email a photo of the disposed toys to zhangfa0426@outlook.com for a full refund.

How to reach GBYMIUY, as listed by CPSC:

• Email: zhangfa0426@outlook.com

Keep a copy of the disposal photo and any Amazon order confirmation if you still have one. The CPSC notice does not say whether a receipt is required.

Why loose high-powered magnets are a problem

CPSC’s point is not that every magnetic toy is unsafe. It is that high-powered magnets that come free from the toy create a severe risk if a child swallows more than one (or a magnet plus metal): magnets can clamp together across intestinal walls, causing perforation, twisting, blockage, blood poisoning, and in severe cases death. This article is not medical advice. If a child may have swallowed a magnet, contact a doctor or poison control right away and mention magnets—do not wait for symptoms.

Do not resell recalled toys. Federal law prohibits selling products subject to a Commission-ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken with CPSC.

Quick checklist

• Find every GBYMIUY stick-figure pack marked X004TVHD2Z (30-figure Amazon set, about $20).
• Take them away from children and stop using them.
• Dispose of them and email a photo to zhangfa0426@outlook.com for a refund.
• Do not sell or give away a recalled unit.
